Population Services International Career Opportunities

Population Services International (PSI) is the world’s leading non-profit social marketing organization, with a mission to measurably improve the health of poor and vulnerable people in the developing world by influencing their behavior, principally through social marketing of family planning and health products and services, and health communications. PSI has programs in more than 60 countries and works in malaria, HIV, reproductive health, child survival, and tuberculosis. PSI's core values are a belief in markets and market mechanisms to contribute to sustained improvements in the lives of the poor; results and a strong focus on measurement; speed and efficiency with a predisposition to action and an aversion to bureaucracy; decentralization and empowering our staff at the local level; and a long term commitment to the people we serve.

At PSI, our success is due to our dedicated, creative, and enterprising staff. Our employees come from a variety of backgrounds for a common purpose: to empower low-income people to lead healthier lives through the informed use of essential health products and services, which are accessible and affordable to them.

In addition to creating demand for health products and services through traditional marketing and advertising techniques, we also create a supply—distributing products through local markets and consumer outlets, and providing services at locations where populations at risk can easily access them. And we subsidize prices, so that these products and services are affordable to the people we most need to reach—the poor.

PSI combines entrepreneurial spirit with social mission. Many of our program staff members began their careers in the commercial sector—in marketing, advertising, sales, or consulting—and decided to apply their business skills to helping people around the world lead healthier lives. Others have worked for international health and development organizations, managing projects and providing technical assistance in developing countries. Employees in our functional departments (Accounting, Contracts, Development, Human Resources & Administration, Procurement & Logistics, Public Affairs, and Recruitment) come from a wide variety of backgrounds to lend their expertise to the support and promotion of PSI's mission.

PSI's headquarters positions are based in the heart of Washington, DC. Positions with PSI's offices and affiliates are based throughout Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Eastern Europe. Whether you work at PSI as an Accountant or a Program Manager, PSI encourages innovation and offers continual opportunities for professional growth.
